Review comment:
It might be more useful to return `project` if no parent/root project is
known. Especially if:
This might be a useful concept in generic Project API. There already is
[SubprojectProvider](https://bits.netbeans.org/12.0/javadoc/org-netbeans-modules-projectapi/org/netbeans/spi/project/SubprojectProvider.html)
and
[ProjectContainerProvider](https://bits.netbeans.org/12.0/javadoc/org-netbeans-modules-projectapi/org/netbeans/spi/project/ProjectContainerProvider.html).
There could be `ParentProvider` and/or `RootProjectProvider` and the `rootOf`
method could be moved to
[ProjectUtils](https://bits.netbeans.org/12.0/javadoc/org-netbeans-modules-projectapi/org/netbeans/api/project/ProjectUtils.html).
Then it could/should be implemented by Maven as well.
I can imagine a "Build All" action that would build the root project to make
sure all bits are compiled and then continue with some other operation.
